If I ever come across another ladies' used platinum Villeret (mechanical or automatic) I'll snap it up, but they made so few it's unlikely.

The GRAFF watch will be lived in now all of the time, and I'll use a top strap maker for future replacement straps...

Can't wait to get it - my birthday is April 19th, so it's my birthday present to myself!

Here is my 18ct gold GRAFF /Chopard watch

It's a rare model given as a precious gift by the Sultan of Brunei to honoured people when he was the richest man in the world - a collectors item, but I wear it every day and will treasure it forevet:)

OK you asked for it. Well, you didn't, but it's been a while and you made me think of it: here is my certainly-not-gold grubby Rodania quartz emblazoned "The Leader, Saddam Hussein". It was given to me by the former Governor of Kirkuk, may he rest in peace. I never met Saddam though!

P.S. She wins. Until you get the SD. Man, I really love that Sub, though...

She ALWAYS wins. Because in our many years of marriage I have learned that if I win, I really lose... Hahahah!

She does prefer a date though. So I suspect what will happen is a complex transaction called a "swap" where I will get the SD4000, and see it miraculously migrate to her wrist, after which I get the SubC ND back...
